When ACS International Schools started in 1967, so did our commitment to provide high quality international education and to positively impact the communities we serve. Over 50 years on, while trends in education come and go, our founding principles remain. They’re at the heart of everything we do. In 2018, we became a UK-registered charity and ACS International Schools In America Inc. a 501(c)(3) non-profit organisation, was established in the US. ACS has already invested over £1m in means-tested bursary places, providing opportunities for students to benefit from an ACS education and, in turn, enriching our community. In our next 2020-21 academic year, over 40 students will benefit from bursary places. In addition to the significant sums we already commit, we also invest in campus facilities to enhance our students’ learning and support for teaching excellence.

Story

Our club would like to raise funds to support a school community in Namibia. Namibia is a beautiful country with a rich cultural heritage and a welcoming population. However, it is also a country that faces numerous challenges, including poverty with a large proportion of the population living below the poverty line. There is a lack of access to education in rural areas where 55% of the population live. Finally there is a healthcare crisis where Namibia's working population has been devastated by HIV/AIDS leaving a generation of children without parents. By supporting an international project in Namibia, our school can make a significant difference in the lives of those in need while also providing our students with an enriching and educational experience.

The school community in Namibia is in urgent need of funds to not only feed the children, but resources to enable them to becoming a self-sustaining community.

Our club is looking to develop more sustainable action to enable these community to thrive.
